Build Advisory · Consulting

You run the program.
We help you build the tool.

No dev team required. From a one-week scoping sprint to a co-built MVP your own team can run and grow — then we hand you the keys.

The Barefoot idea
We don't build it for you and walk away.

Barefoot helps impact organizations turn a real field need into a working no-code tool — without hiring a developer. We build it with you, close to your reality on the ground, then leave you the keys: homecooked software your team actually owns.

Who it's for
Impact programsNGOsSocial enterprises

Impact programs, NGOs and social enterprises with beneficiaries to serve, a real operational need — and no tech team to build the tool.

How it works

Three phases. Stop whenever it's enough.

Start at Phase 1. Stop whenever it's enough — you always leave with something usable.

01Start here

Scope Sprint

Turn a need into a buildable plan
1 week · Remote or on-site
  • Frame the real problem, the users and the field constraints
  • Map the process and spec the MVP
  • Choose the no-code stack, estimate time & budget
You leave with
A clear product brief and a costed, buildable plan — even if you stop here.
02Co-build

Co-Build

Build the MVP, side by side
3–6 weeks · Remote · with your team
  • We build the working MVP, hands on the tools
  • One person from your team builds alongside us
  • From spec to a live tool your beneficiaries can actually use
You leave with
A working MVP, built close to your field reality.
03Keep the keys

Handover & Autonomy

Keep the keys
1–2 weeks · Remote
  • Clear documentation of how the tool works
  • Train your team to run, fix and extend it
  • A handover checklist so nothing breaks when we leave
You leave with
A tool your team owns and can grow on its own.
A typical case

What it looks like in practice.

Illustrative example — not a real client

A program supporting women entrepreneurs needs a simple app — for beneficiaries to keep their own business records, and for field officers to follow their progress. No internal developer.

01
Scope Sprint
Spec the record-keeping app, pick the stack, cost it.
02
Co-Build
Ship a working MVP, with one of their officers building alongside.
03
Handover
Their team runs and extends it after we leave.
